"Locke" chronicles the Locke children as they attempt to recover from their father's murder by a deranged high school student. The family moves to Lovecraft, Massachusetts, where the youngest Locke discovers trans-formative keys hidden within its walls.

The comic debuted in 2008 and is currently in its fourth installment.

Friedman ("Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles") has been tapped as the project's lead writer.

Kurtzman and Orci are launching CBS' "Hawaii Five-0" this fall, in addition to working on Fox's "Fringe."
